Although Mr. Thornton will not sign the STS-8 flown covers, does anyone know whether he will sign the presentation folder that the covers originally come in? Help greatly appreciated — Casey.

Yes. You need to join a stamped and addressed envelope.

Thanks Juergen.

About a week ago I received a letter back from Dr. Thornton. I sent a letter to his home address with SASE asking if he will sign a SMEAT Beta cloth patch. He wrote he will be happy to sign but has no facilities at his home to handle artifacts and requested I send the patch to the Astronaut CB code at JSC. I sent the patch right away and will let you know when it is returned.

I sent him my SMEAT beta cloth patch which was already signed by Crippen and Bobko. He signed it for me. That was two years ago.
